Concerned about not gaining enough weight

So this is my 2nd full term pregnancy (I've lost 3)im 32 weeks and ive gained maybe 10lbs,with my first I gained around 80(yes i said 80) so I'm just concerned that if I'm not gaining how I'm supposed to that the baby won't be healthy. Im due Dec 5th but scheduled for a c section on Nov 28th (because my daughter was an emergency cesarean) Can anyone give me any insight? I'm beginning to become really concerned

How much did you weigh before you got pregnant? I was bigger before, I've gained 9 lbs and I'll be at 33 wks tomorrow. OB said it was fine. I was told at my appointment yesterday that I'm a model pregnant woman.

As long as OB says your good I wouldn't worry with DD (dear daughter) I gained 10 lbs total and she came out almost 8 lbs and was healthy as ever. With this pregnancy I am actually losing weight but baby is measuring 2 weeks ahead so each pregnancy is different but don't stress just make sure you are eating a balenced diet

I still haven't hit prepregnancy weight at 30 weeks. I asked last time I was there and the ob said "we've really changed our view on what women are "supposed" to gain during pregnancy. As long as baby is on track in size and you aren't loosing or gaining massive amounts of weight don't worry. We will tell you if were do concerned."
